NBR O-rings: resistant to oil and grease
Directly from the manufacturer, customised for series production
NBR O-rings are sealing elements that we can supply in a variety of standard or special dimensions using existing tools. If a dimension cannot be manufactured using an existing tool, we offer tool construction with proportional tool costs.
NBR O-rings are characterized by good resistance to the following substances:
- Mineral oil-based oils and greases
- oil-in-water emulsions
- water glycols
- petrol
- hydraulic oils or hydraulic fluids
- Animal and vegetable oils and fats
Please note, however, that the resistance in the media mentioned always depends on the temperature.
These properties were certainly the deciding factor in your decision to use NBR as the material for your preliminary selection.
Please note that NBR is not as resistant to ozone, UV light or weather as EPDM, for example . To avoid damage, NBR O-rings should not be stored in open containers for long periods of time so that they are not exposed to daylight or ozone. These influences can lead to light or ozone cracking. Cracking can be exacerbated by tensile stress, particularly when assembled.
The good material properties of NBR O-rings are fully exploited when they are stored in a closed box until assembly and then installed in a closed installation space. If this is not possible, we recommend adding additional chemical agents to the mixture recipe of the NBR compound. This should be taken into account in the requirements profile of the material and discussed with our specialist consultants at the latest in the preliminary offer meeting.
KREMER will be happy to help you check your material pre-selection. Use our tool to check the chemical resistance in comparison to most other elastomer materials.
KREMER offers you the necessary expertise to be able to offer the right design based on your specifications. We are available to advise you right from the development and design phase. We provide you with two very helpful calculation tools online:
Our specialist consultants will also be happy to help you with questions about how to minimize the high coefficient of static friction of NBR O-rings for automated assembly of large quantities or the stick-slip behavior in dynamic applications. In most cases, coating with environmentally friendly water-based paints helps here.
If you are looking for an NBR O-ring that must be temperature and ozone resistant, we recommend the advanced elastomer material H-NBR for such applications.
KREMER is valued by its customers as the O-ring specialist. Our experts examine your requirements in detail and advise you on both technical and qualitative aspects. Together we will find out whether the NBR or H-NBR O-ring is the right choice for your application.
Competent, high quality and fast – you can rely on KREMER. As soon as we have all the necessary information, we will prepare a detailed offer for you so that you can complete your projects quickly.
